Marvel Rivals Launches Fantastic Four Skins, Team-Up in July 24 Update

Marvel Rivals is set to release a significant update on July 24, 2024, featuring a new Team-Up ability called "First Steps," inspired by the upcoming MCU film Fantastic Four: First Steps. This Team-Up pairs Human Torch and The Thing, allowing Human Torch to lift and carry The Thing across the battlefield before dropping him to deal area-of-effect damage and create a zone that restricts enemy movement, enhancing The Thing's mobility and combat potential. Alongside this, the update introduces new Fantastic Four skins tied to the film’s release, available in the in-game shop. The patch also improves Accessory Points rewards for matches, providing more points for Quick Match and Practice VS. AI modes. Fans will appreciate that the update requires no server downtime, allowing players to update their clients seamlessly and continue playing. Additionally, The Thing will receive a buff to increase his viability, addressing community concerns about the weakness of tank characters in the current season.
